Richards disagrees with Williams over customer cars
30 January 2007Prodrive chief David Richards is adamant that customer cars are permitted for the 2008 season, when Prodrive will become the twelfth team, despite Frank Williams saying otherwise. Williams has already claimed he will take legal action against Toro Rosso and Super Aguri if they use another team's chassis.
"In the presently issued rules for 2008, customer cars are not yet a done deal," Williams told the Guardian.
Richards, however, is sure that the new Concorde agreement, which starts in 2008, allows the use of borrowed chassis. Prodrive entered Formula One based on the knowledge that this was the case.
"There is absolutely no question about it, customer cars are permitted in 2008," Richards told the Guardian. "Williams have entered the 2008 world championship accepting that condition. It all seems absolutely clear to me."
